Your Consultation

Here, at Boston Plastic Surgery, we are passionate about helping people feel better, more in line with who they see themselves being. - Dr. Fouad Samaha

The way people relate to themselves and those around them is often greatly influenced by their self-confidence. Patients who come to see us, here at Boston Plastic Surgery are looking for answers. Helping patients achieve inner beauty is one of the most rewarding aspects of our work because if they admire how they view themselves, then others will see that beauty as well. Boston Plastic Surgery offers a uniquely personal, thorough, and informative consultation designed to help patients feel comfortable, unrushed, and cared for.

The first step is up to you. Contact our office at (617) 786-7600 or toll-free at (888) 806-4844, and ask to speak with our Patient Care Coordinator and Registered Nurse, Maureen Walls, to set up a consultation.

Maureen will make every effort to accommodate your busy schedule and find an appointment convenient for you. If you are not able to call the office during business hours (8:30 am - 5:00 pm), feel free to use our contact form .

Whether over the phone or via email, Maureen will do her best to answer any questions you may have. Then, she will generate an informational packet catered to your specific needs and send it out to you, often times the very same day.

The next step is to meet with Dr. Samaha and Maureen. They will review your medical history and offer their advice as to the best options available to help you achieve your goals, including cosmetic surgery, medical-grade skincare, and minimally invasive procedures.

After discussing your goals, your ideal timetable, and your budget, we will prepare a quote for the necessary or desired procedure(s). If at the end of the consultation you are prepared to schedule the procedure(s), we will make every effort to do so before you leave. However, if you would like to take some time to think about the information provided and the options suggested, the written quote we have supplied you with will be honored for 6 months.

If you take that first step and call us today, be assured that you will never feel pressured or rushed. We cannot and will not make any decisions for you, but we will provide you with the right information and educate you on the latest medical advances to enable you to make an informed decision about what is best for you. Our open and inviting atmosphere will make you feel right at home and comfortable enough to ask any questions or express any feelings and concerns you may have.
